I was only about 20' from Jerald when I took the closer one, I actually walked down there, pole, beer and all:roll_eyes::smile2:, yeah, it was nice, really windy thogh, the wind was coming down that river channel pretty hard. Folks had been catch some Walleye down there, but we didn't get lucky.:sad2:

It was a choice, the beer or the net, no shad, so guess what went with me:smile2:. No, didn't have the net with us, haven't seen any down there yet, we were using frozen shad and worms.
Haven't seen any on the shorline of the lake yet either. They're out there though. When I went down my the CC boat ramp, the ice was just covered with crows and eagles pecking in the ice. This ice melts, we should start seeing some come floating in. I'm leaving for Witchita tomorrow and won't be back till Friday. I'm sure Jerald will cruise down there and check it out.
